Ally’s Big Banger

Ally Redondo is the Queen of many things, but a Sick, Epic Banger.. Now, that is her specialty!

 

Ally's Big Banger is as essential to your day as a morning cup of coffee, waking you up like a bat out of hell with some of the most iconic bands including Guns and Roses, AC/DC or Mötley Crüe... but an Ally's Big Banger doesn't need to be a rock banger, it just has to rate on the Bangability meter!

 

Check out the most recent Ally's Big Bangers below. Do you think you know what rates on the Banagability scale and are keen to submit your suggestions? Email Ally here.
